    Speaking In Tongues is a DIY indie-rock music project lead by Alex Profera. Started in his hometown of Staten Island, NY in 2007 and refined on the Purchase College & Westchester music scene by playing shows with an array of musicians from the university and local area. Antarctican Apathy is the sophomore follow up EP to the previous "The Pharaoh's Dance", and interesting meld of indie & prog rock. With a more solid direction and cohesive aesthetic Alex has forged an entirely self created indie-rock gem by throwing doo-wop, punk, and pop into the mix. Now involved in the Bushwick/Ridgewood NY DIY scene, the band features drummer Steve Levine and Alex Truitt on bass. The album has been written up in various sources including UK blog Sonic Masala, Kode Magazine, and featured on The Hype Machine. ... more

Early on a sunday morning we're here at the bar Desmond, Vlad, and, Morgan exchange a laugh and joke before we go afar Load up the boat with with everything we need follow me on a journey and I'll lead Set the course for Antarctica's tip we've been donated the finest ship though we'll risk our lives being bold we'll find the end of the world as the stories untold All our friends and family wish us all goodluck We're so nervous giving hugs and kisses, we're stuck I give a pat on my doggies head and remind Teresa to keep him well fed. This is it, crack the champagne now it's time that we'll finally leave Maine Set the course for Antarctica's tip we've been donated the finest ship though we'll risk our lives being bold we'll find the end of the world as the stories untold

Step into the snow and let the ice freeze your toes 6 doggies pull us over the hill and now we just stand still up near a cliff the wall cracks open revealing a passage And we're all scared stiff and a penguin and a polar bear present a bow and smile and we enter a cave that goes on for miles Little did we know the animals they had a show they welcomed us with open arms, they gave us foods and suits and charms The animals, the animals So we talk to the mayor and let him know about our journey we spoke to the soothsayer and he said we need an attorney now we've packed up our gear and take off without any fear We got our huskies strapped them up and fed them what we had left they wished us good luck they gave us all the clothing that they had Little did we know know the animals they had a show they welcomed us with open arms, they gave us foods and suits and charms The animals, the animals

The winds picked up around Beardmore Glacier. And, I've been lost for days since we lost view. I keep checking my radio in hopes the party will show. I set up tent with some poles and a tarp. the winds pick up and they sound just like a harp. Was it east or was it west? I sure could use a rest. Wipe the ice away and I see your engraving. On this cantine, I'm just waiting on this damn team. …engraving on this cantine. I'm just waiting on this damn team I'm plotting a path on this map, pack it away in this sack. Lace up my boots and call it a wrap. I'm heading south of this rift to the animal cliff I'll follow our fading foot prints, it's really my only good hint. Wander to the sunset for that glint. Purple sky leads me tonight, not a human being in sight. The ice will melt away and I see your

The Yeti 02:47
Into a cave, I wander the corridors. All my water, I squander the hoards. Take a seat right next to an ape and he advises me it's not to late This fuzzy fellow had taken Refuge, long ago And I let him know that I could use a Trip too the tavern back home I wonder why, we ever left the port This adventure, was only in vain Who thought that I would end up all alone He poured me a glass of his finest whiskey What a nice guy he was, the tabloids always portray him as a beast A creamy light brown coat of fur, he spun his head around This fuzzy fellow had taken Refuge, long ago And I let him know that I could use a Trip too the tavern back home I wonder why, we ever left the port This adventure, was only in vain Who thought that I would end up all alone

We approach a mirage in the distance my goggles are fogged up but it's definitely not there we got our picks and we went away like a chain gang I miss the sand dunes I miss your truck I miss the road I miss your folks I miss the ocean I miss your dog You me with a gift to capture any images I wanted You me with some memories in my book but now I'm haunted You left behind without a trail of silence behind you But one night in the tent you got in touch you saw April's issue of "The Explorer's League" and you liked it seeing Misty cross the ice valley and that was the last transmission
